I'm looking for a move to use that is boosted if the target has a status condition(burned,poisoned). I've looked through bulbapedia's move list, but I might have missed it. If it existsplease tell me what is is. Thanks!

Hex will double in power if the opponent is inflicted with any status condition. Venoshock will also double damage, however only if the opponent is Poisoned. The moves Wake Up Slap and Dream Eater will also do increased damage or only work if the target is Asleep, respectfully.

Edit: the move Smelling Salts will also deal double damage if the opponent is Paralysed, but cures said status.

Wake up slap wakes up the target after dealing damage.
